I am finding myself once again at the point where leveling gets kind of slow and I am wondering how I could get myself to 99 a little faster. 

 

Kind of don't know what to do once my rotation of eden board quests is done, else than just go out and kill mobs one at a time.

 

I wouldn't mind getting regular quests done as I did in the past, but would I be able to complete them again after rebirth? Because if I can't...I might as well wait until transcendent class since more exp is needed to get to 99 again.

 

I also tried TI, but sadly this week is brutal with the Elders. If they cast fire bolt at me it's a one shot death. Not very efficient if I end up losing more exp than I gain...

 

So, wondering if there would be other good way to earn exp, else than just go out and kill one mob at a time and pick up eden quests again whenever they're off timer?

juno bounty boards still give pretty good exp at that level, even if the monsters are lower-leveled. be sure to turn in all 4 at once. you also get zeny and EMBs from it and there's no cool-down

 

edit: also do all the brasilis quests and turn them in all at once with a BM. victoria will give you a nice chunk of exp too

Just find a turn in and sit in it for a few hours.  If you can buy a bm, shouldn't take long at all, esp if its not even trans.

[Peerless]

Hmm,I recommend getting a few reducts if you have a few million zeny sitting around somewhere,for you can do TI in rotation with the eden board quests on BMs. That way you can kill a couple birds with one stone.

I 99ed twice with just the Harpy quest from the Bounty Board (locationed outside the tool shop of Juno). It's repeatable forever.

I'm leveling an autocast battle priest (that's right, priest, not even reborn yet) with just a snake head and a CD, and it's like 95 just from Juno boards. It takes me about an hour per rotation since I'm usually watching TV while I whack stuff.

Had not thought of those, will give them a try could be useful while eden ones are on timer.

 

As for the quest, I assume you mean the murder mystery ones? They were indeed awesome exp but as I mentionned in my post do quest completions reset on rebirth? Because if they don't, I'd rather save them for trans leveling.

I currently do not have any funds for anything. Also as I mentionned, TI is quite brutal for me this week. Plus I can only contribute single target DPS, which doesn't seem to get me in groups much...

[Draciolus]

If the quest page on Wiki doesn't say it is repeatable, then you will only be able to do it once(most quests are NOT repeatable as far as I know).

If you have arrow shower that's pretty helpful for breaking frozen targets, and damage isn't too terrible either.  nothing compared to arrow storm but that's a ways off.

 

Try finding a group with a BS; that'll make you wish you had your hunter again .  You're basically just a crappy puller and get yelled at if you use power thrust.

Well I already knew it was not repeatable, but I just did not know if all your quests reset on rebirth. So if they don't, I'm keeping them for the next round to 99.

[stoenr]

which class are you using?  and yea the juno boards is the most efficient way to solo.

[Ilindith]

Hunter, also just looked those boards up, wiki says 135k exp for killing Harpies. 

 

That seems quite low compared to eden boards, especially since bounties are 150 kills vs 30 for eden. 

 

At my level it's the 91-99 eden quests, which for example have Dark Priests giving 146k for 30 kills.

 

Am I missing something for those bounty boards? Because they don't look that efficient to me right now.

[stoenr]

the maps are mobby so u can finish them up real quick.  eden is excellent too but its on a 3 hour timer and it does take a while to finish all the quests.  i just skip the sleepers and go after everything else.

did the GM push up the respawn rate? when i first started it took forever to get 150 harpies.

Quests don't reset after rebirthing. Never have and never will.

Then I will be saving them for rebirth, I know a few that give a decent amount of exp now from past characters.

i don't know where the board warps you to for harpies, but I just take the quest and head out the south entrance of juno.  harpies for days.

normally yes but when i went out there were a few but wait another 15min before the next one show up.

[Necrohealiac]

when was the last time you went?  i was there last night wrapping the quest up on my BS and got 80+ in around 15 mins.  it gets super mobby too so can be dangerous if you're not paying attention.

[Sapphic]

It's super mobby and forever repeatable. Getting that extra chunk of exp is super helpful.

around when the boards first came up.

 

my gene was dragging along my potter and a priest. i try both staying at same spot and moving around. Took about a hour to get 150harpies. gave up after halfway through the sleepers.

maybe no one was there. it took me a berserk/awake pot to finish 1~2 x 150 counts using ctrl-click classes

with my hscr smith, i can finish 2~3 x 150 counts in one berserk/awake pot.

long as you know where to hunt best.

oh, and i ctrl-clicked 0~1 devilings too every run.

i know exactly where to hunt Harpy/sleeper/grandpeco/sheep. I did a lot of walking around with RK when i first started. I also know how to read maps.
